Need For Speed: Carbon

2furio · Post by **2furio** » 25 May 2006, 02:35

"Whilst trawling through the listings at EBGames.com, a place where many games are listed before ever being announced, it was quite pleasing to find that Electronic Arts is apparently bringing its new racer Need for Speed: Carbon to the Nintendo Wii on 1st November, 2006. The date will be a placeholder, but the game's existence is very likely."

Oh sweet! (When does the Wii come out?) Looks like there might be a chance the next NFS will be finished in 06.

Celica's are CoupÃ©s, all versions.

There is a big diffirence between a Hatch and a CoupÃ©
And in the group of CoupÃ©s you got 2 main streams. the lowprofile sports cars and the 2 door sedans. (BMW M3, Civic coupe)

Hatchbacks have a almost vertical trunkdoor. a coupe has eighter a trunk like a sedan or a system like a hatchback but with a deeper door.

If theres no PC version, EA will lose a large fanbase. Even for such a large company, thats very bad news. I doubt they'll drop a PC version, at least I hope not anyway.

Damn guy....chill. The game hasn't even been announced...

There will most likely be a PC version. Before U2 came out, my local EB claimed there was no PC version but then it turned out there was. Since NFS first came out on PC, I really doubt they'd cancel it for PC this time around ... especially in it's 10th iteration.

I am sure that EA will release a PC version! They allways do!

Ok...just because EBGames doesn't list it for PC doesn't mean it won't come out for PC...

Hatchbacks have a almost vertical trunkdoor. a coupe has eighter a trunk like a sedan or a system like a hatchback but with a deeper door.

But the entire back opens, including the rear window. Isn't that hatchback? And if it isn't, then why is the RSX listed as a hatchback?

toyota calls it a "liftback". hatchback's don't have a defined trunk like the celica does. it's true that all celicas are coupÃ©s. trust me, i've been searching online forever to find one in my price range....

No way they won't release a PC Version.

But if they don't, I'll simply move on in life.

Exactly.

like prince1142003 said.

Toyota calls with the trunk system of a Celica a liftback
there is a diffirence between a liftback and a Hatchback.
I know that Toyota made a version of the Corolla (AE111) in several versions including a Hatchback (best know in the most of the world) and a Liftback.

The reason why Acura calls the RSX a Hatchback is because Americans don't have a clue what a hatchback is

Europe is the Hatchback capital, like 9 out of 10 cars here is a hatchback

btw have to say that the Seat LEON Cupra R is a difficult car also it is infact a Hatchback but it's leaning towards a coupe.... but that is a complete diffirent matter.

canhoto · Post by **canhoto** » 26 May 2006, 11:25

if the leon's a coupe then the ibiza,the focus,the golf,the a3,the corsa and all the rest of that kind of cars are coupes

Kid Cro · Post by **Kid Cro** » 26 May 2006, 18:06

Damn you just cant get it huh? Well allmost evry car have his coupe version!
Yeah all those cars that you have listed can be a coupes! Coupe=car with 3 doors!

canhoto · Post by **canhoto** » 26 May 2006, 19:21

"Coupe=car with 3 doors!"

WRONG!or at least not entirely correct.there's the matter of the size of the car.

in my country(i don't how it works on yours) there's a measurement unit called volumes that makes the difference between a coupe and a hatchback

3volumes=a 4 door car
2.5 volumes=coupe
2volumes=hatchback (either 3 or 5 doors)

mainly this refers to the size of the trunk,the space between the front bumper and the beggining of the windshield and the space the goes from the windshield to the rear window...and normally the coupe trunk is bigger than the hatchback's.and there's less space in the rear seats in a coupe(when there are any)

I don't know from where this came from (looks like from a Gamespot thread) but it seems interesting:

- more than 25 new tracks! I guess the game will be placed in a single city again. No old school tracks all over the world

- management of the chamber in records of rollers....... --> what does this mean?

prince1142003 · Post by **prince1142003** » 26 May 2006, 22:09

could mean garage management, or interior customization....

You mean a crap game where you spend more time on your car than racing and the Ai cheats?
